Summary:

"Yoga was originally designed to make you calmer, steadier, and more content, not just stronger and healthier. This guide offers many ways you can use yoga as a healthy coping mechanism when you're confronted with the physical, emotional, and mental changes that life brings us. It includes both ancient and modern techniques, including yoga poses, breathing practices, relaxation, mantras, and meditation, that allow you to return yourself to balance when you're experiencing challenges, and to fortify yourself for the future. Nina Zolotow covers myriad topics related to change, including stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, being present, making peace with change, how to practice yoga when you're experiencing physical changes, and how to practice meditation, breath practices, and yoga on your own, among others. Become more comfortable with life's ups and downs by learning to live your everyday life the yogic way"-- Provided by publisher.
